about

Sound work based on a message received on an answering machine. The caller's telephone contacts a correspondent by mistake, calling back the last number recorded, in their absence -a pocket dial, as it is sometimes called.

The two people are therefore absent from each other, in a purely mechanical interlocution.

The result is a recording of an unintelligible fragment of life: the fabric, the material of the bag or pocket, as well as the movement, create a sound filter effect, making the recording of what is taking place formless and indecipherable.

From this recording, a sound work of filtering and electronic modulation transforms the sound, which loses its original impenetrable form and becomes in turn unrecognizable, turning into an abstract electroacoustic composition.

The sound material is unformed twice, accidentally from the form of everyday life, and electronically in the process of creation.
